I'm loving this new little piggy stamp set! I've been creating all kinds of new projects for my upcoming New Catalog Open House this Wednesday. If you're local be sure to come; it's at my home studio from 4-7 pm.

I love new products!!! And I totally love our new In Colors. You'll be seeing lots of new things in the next few weeks.

This image in the set is one of my favorites. There are lots of people in my life that do make me happy! This year I am going to work on sending more random cards out to let them know.

The main color here is our new Powder Pink. I stamped the pig image twice; once on the White circle and once on a scrap of Powder Pink. I fussy cut the pig out and adhered it onto the White CS.

I used the Circle Collection framelits for the main image and just added a Pear Pizzazz 1" banner down the center. This new embossing folder is called Oh My Stars.

Below is a few links to the retiring bundles, stamp sets and everything else; they'll be gone and unavailable after Wednesday, May 31st! Some of these deals are incredible!!!

I hope you're having a great Memorial weekend. I've been in Fargo taking care of my 3 year old granddaughter Eliza this week while my daughter and her husband went to the west coast for a vacation. It's been so fun to spend so much time with her.

Today I am sharing another version of the Tasty Treats fun fold card I shared last week. We made it at my May Card Clubs. I chose to use the Nailed It bundle for this great Father's Day card.

I added some of the Urban Underground Specialty Designer Series Paper. Unfortunately it is out of stock already from the retired list. The Nailed It stamp set is still available for just a few more days; through May 31st unless they run out. The Build It framelits are already out of stock. The Retiring list can sure be frustrating at times! I guess we aren't supposted to wait to get what we want.

Below is the video you can watch to see how to put this fun double gate fold card together.

Thanks for stopping in today; I hope you have a great day!

We made this pretty card at my friend Jen's workshop last week. I received it in a swap but it didn't have a name on it so I cannot give credit. If it's yours let me know!

It features the Dragonfly Dreams bundle and the Timeless Textures stamp set. Remember that any of the current bundles will no longer be 'bundled' in the upcoming new catalog. So if it's on your wishlist you may want to get it now while it's discounted.

The colors here are Pool Party, Wisteria Wonder. Elegant Eggplant and White. Lovely isn't it?! The fun background stamps in the Timeless Textures stamp set add the perfect touch for the dragonfly. We stamped off for some images to get a lighter hue of ink.

Measurements:

White card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", White stamped layer 3 3/4" X 5"

Pool Party 4" X 5 1/4"

See the items I used below here.

For some reason I thought the Irresistibly Yours Designer Series Paper was returning in the new catalog. It's not; it's retiring like all the rest!

I used the new Glittered Enamel dots and the new Ticket Tear Border punch. Can you tell that the glittered enamel dots are in different shades? Wait until you see them; they come in ombre shades in 4 different colors and match many of our card stocks and inks! The colors on my card here are Melon Mambo, Pumpkin Pie and the new Lemon Lime Twist.

I plan to show this at my Open House next week so I have now switched the DSP with a new and current one. I'll post that one tomorrow so you can see the difference.

The greeting is from the Just Add Text stamp set which I colored in with coordinating markers. The fun White die-cut behind the banner is from the Eastern Medallions thinlits. I sponged a bit of Melon Mambo on the edges. The front of the card is trimmed off by about 3/4" of an inch and the greeting banner sticks out into that area for interest.

Happy Monday!! Here's a bright, eye catching card I made for a recent swap using the Label Me Pretty stamp set and punch bundle. I'm pretty sure this stamp set and bundle will likley be added to your wishlist!

I love the square on the angle like this; it adds so much dimension to the layout. The colors here are Bermuda Bay, Black and the new Lemon Lime Twist.

The Black card stock opens; not the Bermuda Bay. See?

You can see the measurements and the products I used below.

Measurements:

Bermuda Bay 5 1/2" X 4 1/4", 2 1/4" square

Black - 8" X 5 1/4", scored at 4", & 2 3/8" square

Whisper White - 2 1/2" square

In Color Prints DSP 1 3/4" X 5 1/4"
